Nothing

What to do:

Teacher can present a series of statements on the board or read them out loud. 
The idea is for students to associate the clues to a relevant topic/keyword from the lesson.

e.g:

I am Orange in colourYou need to peel my skin before you eat me I am round in shapeI am very juicy 


or

I am an eight letter word and I am a computer terminology.The second, third and fourth letters make an animal.The fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth letters make a weapon.The first, second, third and fourth letters can be taken as an outcome of any exam.The fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth letter combine to form a high end typing software.



Variations:
